    The atmosphere was very inviting. We were acknowledged and greeted right away. The service was good! We got a kick out of the robot delivering our food. That was so cool! The drink specials were very affordable. I had a glass of the red blend which was $7.25. I enjoyed the taste and appreciated that it wasn't an over priced glass of wine. The shareable appetizers were fairly priced and the portions were generous. We tried the cornbread and the macaroni and cheese. Both were tasty and I'm normally not a fan of cornbread in general. It had a sweet spicy taste combination going on as it had jalapenos in it but not overbearing to make it too spicy. I ordered the Salmon BLT. OMG!!!!!! It was so delicious! It was so flavorful and had some sort of sauce on it that had a little kick and I loved it! The fries were real potatoes which I appreciate in this faux food world today. My friend got the Salmon entree and the Salmon looked so moist and she said it was flavorful as well. As we closed out, our server said they didn't take cash. That was a bit surprising but in today's world who really ever uses cash. I just happened to have some on me that day but this didn't take away from the experience at all. I will definitely return! We are already planning to return in the Summer for happy hour! Looking forward to it.
